BWon't you scratch my itch sweet EAnnie BRich

BCome out on your porch or I'll Estep into your Bparlour
And I'll C#tell you how it all went F#down
BOut with the truckers and the kickers and the cowB7boy aEngels
And a Bgood saloon in every single Etown
And EI remember F#something that you once Btold me
And EI'll be damned if F#it did not come Btrue
ETwenty thousand F#roads I went dBown, dD#mown, G#mdown
And Ethey all lead me F#straight back home to Byou
BWe flew straight across that Eriver Bbridge,
